Julius and other I have been finding a possible pollinator up north forAlocasias Colocasia and possibly other aroids. It seems the Japanesebeetle maybe making it's way into a few spaths. They seem to eat theinside of the Spath on most aroids and sometimes fall to the lowerchamber were they pollinate the inflorescence. They ate odd groovesinside the spath and it seemed all that I have found look to beintoxicated or close to death. The beetles are covered in pollen andbarely move possibly from struggling inside the spath for hours? Ihave seen this only a few times this year in Alocasia Colocasia and Dracunculusvulgaris. --------------000608070300070908030805----===============1784667471252980537==
